Slurm on Kubernetes (SUNK)

Easily run Slurm-based batch jobs or container-based, real-time workloads on the same GPU Cluster

Run batch or real-time workloads <on one cluster>

At CoreWeave, we’re always looking for ways to improve customer experience. That’s why we developed SUNK—or Slurm on Kubernetes. Our solution lets your teams deploy Slurm on Kubernetes with GitOps and colocate Slurm and containerized workloads all on the same cluster. That includes pre-training, inference, experimentation, and everything else you need to build, train and deploy your GenAI applications.

Share compute with ease

Unlock greater workload fungibility with SUNK. You’ll get more out of your compute for less time (and money).

Efficiency

Share resources between Slurm and Kubernetes to dramatically increase resource efficiency and streamline deployment—perfect for running training and inference workloads on the same cluster

Dynamic scalability

SUNK can dynamically scale Slurm nodes to match workload requirements, easing the burden of managing the needs of complex and large-scale compute tasks

Optimization

Run only one cluster—instead of two separate ones for training and inference. Get the benefits of optimal model training throughput   and capacity to support production inference demand, accelerating time to market

Run on industry-leading Cloud infrastructure services

SUNK runs on infrastructure services that provide the ideal combination of ease of use, workload fungibility, performance, and scale.
